Noel Clarke found himself at the center of a sexual harassment scandal yesterday when allegations from over 20 women were chronicled in an exposé by The Guardian.

The claims ranged from the alleged filming of nude auditions to sexually suggestive overtures to alleged groping.

In the time since the repercussions have been swift and seismic.

Clarke’s recent Lifetime Achievement BAFTA Award has been rescinded, his latest ITV show ‘Viewpoint’ pulled from air ahead of its final episode, and his series ‘Bullefproof’ removed from The CW’s streaming service in the United States.

With the likes of his co-star Ashley Walters and Michaela Coel condemning Clarke’s alleged actions, the 45-year-old has broken his silence.

Much like her enduring top 5 hit, ‘Levitating’ (which missed the charts upon the introduction of its Madonna and Missy Elliott-assisted remix), her latest effort – ‘We’re Good’ – didn’t exactly live up to its title at its onset.  However, fans who thought the Titanic-themed hit had sunken will be thrilled to know it’s finally sailing to higher heights on the Hot 100.

10 weeks after first making a splash on the hit list, ‘Good’ has finally docked inside the tally’s top 40.
